Finally, plain-clothes policemen fired a volley of blank cartridges, thus stampeding the crowds.” (5 September 1923) Additional information about this photograph is available on the National Library of Ireland's Flickr Commons photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/49783640046/ This description is derived from the original Index Books created at the A.
